From New York's highest court ...

We therefore express our hope that the participants in the controversy over same-sex marriage will address their arguments to the Legislature; that the Legislature will listen and decide as wisely as it can; and that those unhappy with the result — as many undoubtedly will be — will respect it as people in a democratic state should respect choices democratically made.

Sometimes they do get things right in New York!

Exactly right. Every time the issue is fought head to head on even what are sometimes lopsided grounds people many of which don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the issue or the details when given a choice decide against gay marriage. If we fight holding onto the truth that homosexuality is largely derivative from molestation and sexual abuse there would be even less people supporting the idea. We have a choice fight the deterioration and devolution of the culture which greater acceptance of homosexuality represents or sit quietly by as not just the institution of marriage is wreaked but as new horrors rise to their place in line to be tolerated.

It is only a matter of time that Ted Olson gets gay marriage before the SCOTUS, and argues that a current ban violates the Equal Protection Clause.

And Stevens, Bryer, Ginsburg, Kennedy and Sotomayor will buy that argument.

Homosexual behavior and couplings have been around as long as humanity; and in 5000 years of recorded history, humans have never called same-sex couplings, “marriage”. We may flirt with this mindless liberalism for the moment, but it will not last, and the rest of the world will never accept it.
